How a turbo works

A turbocharger or what is usually referred to as a turbo is a device fitted onto an engine to induce forced induction. It is made up of two fans called the impeller and the turbine, which are connected by a shaft. The turbine is connected to the exhaust system and turned by exhaust gases, which is its primary difference to a supercharger which is connected to the engine itself. Normally, an engine sucks air that is combined with fuel in the combustion chamber and heated to make energy. A turbo is therefore introduced to improve the price at which the fuel-air mixture burns and this leads to much more engine energy. This impact is brought about by its rotation, which creates a partial vacuum that results in more air suction and thus far more combustion (the pressure developed is greater than 1 atmosphere). This is however … READ MORE ...
